The population of a town was 14000 in 2010. if the population decreased at a rate of 1.5% each year thereafter, use an exponential function to find the population after 10 years

120362

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function for finding population is given as :

A = P

Where :

A = Total amount of growth after some given time

P = Original population

r = growth rate

t = total years

From the question , we will notice that there is a decrease in the population , then the formula to be used will be

A = P )

A = ?

P = 14000

r = 1.5% = 0.015

t = 10

substituting each given values into the formula , we have

A = 1400 ()

A = 14000 ( )

A = 14000 X 0.859730442

A = 120362.2619

Therefore : The population after 10 years is ≈ 120362

80+60+y=180

then divide the difference between 60 and y and add it to 180

so x =180 +( (y-60)/2)

x equals 200
